Markus's birthday was arriving soon and the whole company was preparing for the celebration banquet.
It had been almost five months to Markus and Kizy's marriage and they were about to complete six months together in two weeks after Markus's birthday.
Today Markus had gone to visit a site alone and thus Kizy was working in her office when Joel knocked the door.
"Come in." Kizy said.
"Young miss, are you busy?" Joel asked politely.
"No I'm not." Kizy replied.
"Actually I wanted to inform you about Boss's birthday.." Joel said.
"Ohh… yeah I heard next Friday is his birthday. We still have nine days left. The company is planning for the celebration." Kizy said.
"But young miss, have you planned anything?" Joel asked.
"What plan?" Kizy questioned in a confused tone.
"Young miss, forgive me for interfering, but boss and you have been fighting for almost a month now. Why don't you plan some surprises for him? That way both of you will be back to normal and it won't be awkward to act like a real couple in front of everyone." Joel said.
"What do you mean?" Kizy asked.
"Maybe you could do something for him and surprise him on his birthday." Joel suggested.
"But why should I? Has Markus asked you to make me take this initiative?" Kizy asked.
"No young miss, boss isn't aware about this. Please don't tell him about anything. I just wanted to personally advise you a little. And boss has already proposed to you in front of everyone, so people are waiting for you to take some steps in this relationship." Joel explained.
"You want me to do this for the public?" Kizy asked.
"Yes young miss." Joel said seriously.
And this way both of them spent almost half an hour discussing their birthday surprise.
The next few days, Kizy worked hard to prepare surprises for Markus, and she had thought of a perfect way to let others know about it.
And finally the big day arrived!!
Tomorrow was Markus's birthday, and tonight Kizy had planned to surprise Markus with help of Joel.
Joel had confirmed that Markus was busy with some new project and would be staying in the office for the entire night as usual, thus Kizy had planned to go visit him and present her surprise gifts at sharp 12 in midnight.
Kizy arrived at the parking lot at exactly 11.45 pm with all her surprise gifts ready. She waited for another five minutes and took out her phone before going live on her social media account.
The public were most active on social media at such late times, thus in just two minutes, almost thousands of people were watching Kizy live.
"So hello everyone. I guess you all would already be knowing the reason behind this live i.e Markus's birthday.
Though I wanted to surprise him individually, I thought it would be better to share this happy moment with all of you.
Now, please don't curse me saying I am being selfish, doing all this PDA to make you feel lonely. I just want all of you, who both Markus and I consider as our family, to witness our small but happy moments and be a part of them." Kizy said through the live.
She kept talking with the public, reading and replying to some of the comments. She een went to the car and took out all the gifts.
"So this is the cake I have baked, and I know this might be the worst cake you people would have ever seen, but this was my first time. I don't mind its look, I just want it to taste a bit normal." Kizy said before closing the cake box.
Kizy took out another three boxes and opened them. One of them consisted of a handmade sketch of her and Markus, looking at each other lovingly.
"So this is made by me. I guess this looks good though." Kizy said with a smile.
The public immediately replied with praises, appreciating her drawing skills.
The second book was more like a journal, where she had attached all their photos from some special memories and handwritten her feelings beside them.
"And lastly this is the only thing I could afford. Please understand this poor broke girl." Kizy said before opening the last box.
It consisted of a watch and pen, though not branded, but they looked good.
"Please don't kid us Mrs Markus!!"
"If even you, Mrs Moneybags can't afford it, forget about us poor beggars."
"Wasn't making us realise our loneliness not enough. Do you have to show how poor we are *sob*"
"I love her frank personality. Even after being with Markus, she only brought gifts which she could afford from her own money."
"Miss Kizy, please give them to me. I would die happily after receiving your gifts."
"My poor heart and wallet!"
The netizens immediately praised her again for her gifts and honest personality. Kizy laughed heartily on those comments.
"Count me in, my poor friends. I am no better than you guys." Kizy said.
Finally she closed all the boxes and placed them one upon another and carried it in her left hand before taking the cake bag in the right one along with the selfie stick which was attached to her phone, capturing her live.
"So guys it's 11.57 pm. Let's go now." Kizy said excitedly before walking towards the elevator and pressing for the 40th floor, Markus's office.
She reached the 40th floor by 11.59 pm and turned the camera towards the door, so that she could capture Markus being surprised the moment she entered.
She placed the gift boxes in her left hand on the table placed outside his office door and took out the keys to Markus's office.
Being his PA, she already had a set of spare keys to his office, making it easier for her to enter his office tonight for the surprise.
"1, 2, 3" Kizy counted and she opened the door with a loud 'Bang'.
"HAPPY BIRTHD-" Kizy suddenly dropped the gifts in her left hand, dropping her cake and phone as well, her face changing from that of excitement to shock, unable to believe the scene that greeted her eyes.

Have a great day!!
